  • SOLVED...Fujitsu Siemens Amilio Wireless Not Working,, SOLVED?

    Hi,

    I have tried for weeks to sort this out on my Fujitsu Siemens Amilo Li 2735 and finally SOLVED it..

    If you have reinstalled or upgraded your laptop and the WiFi isn't working or when you press the [Fn+F2] key that doesn't work either then you have come to the right PLACE.

    this is how its done....

    I found this little tip & thought I should share..

    Problem:

    The wireless connection is off when you start Windows on Fujitsu-Siemens Amilo laptop

    Solution:

    Make sure you have "Launch Manager" installed, this can be found on the Fujitsu Siemens Driver site.

    To install Launch Manager Click the link.... http://support.ts.fujitsu.com/Download/ShowDescrip...

    1. Download "Launch Manage"

    2. Left click the file and Extract the file with winRAR or 7-Zip. (Extract to XXXX) - (XXXX = File Name)

    3. Open the Extracted file

    4. Click on the SETUP to install

    5. Once setup is done and its Installed then RESTART - Done

    _________________________________

    If you would like the WiFi to connect its self Automatically without having to press [Fn+F2]every timee you start your PC, Laptop Then follow this below...

    firstly open your Notepad..

    Then in Notepad copy the following Code:

    --------------------------------

    Set WshShell = WScript.CreateObject("WScript.Shell")

    Set oExec = WshShell.Exec("C:\Program Files\Launch Manager\WisWBSet.exe")

    do while WshShell.AppActivate("Wireless Status Option")=False

    WScript.Sleep 100

    loop

    WScript.Sleep 100

    WshShell.sendkeys("{TAB}{TAB}{LEFT}~")

    --------------------------------

    Save this file as "WiFi.vbs" somewhere on the Hard drive.

    Copy a short cut of the .vbs file and drag it into your "Start Menu / Programs / Startup" to ensure it starts automatically when rebooting.

    -

    Thanks...

    I hope this Solves all your problems as i know there are a few out there that Have this Problem

  • Fujitsu Siemens Amilo 2735.. Installed windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit and my WiFi has stopped working on my laptop.?

    Hi i have a laptop that i have just installed windows 7 64 bit on and it all installed ok no problem (yes its a genuine cope before anyone wants to comment that) and when i have tried to connect to the internet by the wireless, there is no wifi available.

    I also have tried to turn the WiFi on using the combo (Fn+F2) and then the box appears then you switch it on like that but nothing happens.

    I have looked on the device manager and nothing is wrong.

    It was working before i done the install of windows 7

    I have also tried to download the correct Wireless Driver for the Fujitsu Siemens Amilo 2735 but when i try and nstall it all it does is open up another file so i have not got a clue how to install the driver for this laptop.

    Could anyone help me as i need the wifi enabled as i use the wifi and not the ethernet cable as i connect to the internet using my phones ''WiFi Hotspot'' and this is the only way i can connect.

    I do have a Fujitsu Siemens ESPRIMO Mobile V5535 and the wireless on this 1 is:

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Network Adapter SiS Ethernet Controller

    Network Adapter Atheros AR5007EG Wireless Network Adapter

    Network Adapter Microsoft Tun Miniport Adapter

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    is there anyway that i could copy the driver or something so that i can transfer it to my FS Amilo 2735 so that i can install it or could anyone point me in the right direction of the right WiFi driver to download for the FS Amilo 2735 so that i can get this working.

    Thanks in advance to anyone with any help, as i have been trying for weeks now without any Luck!!
